Less is More week 106 One Layer

Hi everyone! Hope you're well!

Whoa! Where did those two months go? It's been a long time since I last posted and tbh I haven't really missed it - it does makes you realise how much time is taken up by the whole blog thing and how much more time could be used doing other things.

Anyways,I've gotten a new laptop and connected my little Epson printer to it so I've been able to get crafty again this weekend using the dining table in the lounge - not ideal really but better than nothing. (My daughter is still hogging my desk, computer and craft area to study - bless).

Here's a couple of cards I've managed to do today.

First my Less is More entry:

(I hope my flower is acceptable as a minimal embellishment.)

The musical script is a Kaisercraft stamp and the sentiment is from Paula Pascual. The rose is cut from felt using a My Favourite Things die and the leaves are a Sizzix die.

Next:

I really liked the Fashion Divas cds Debbi Moore brought to Create and Craft as a Pick of the Week and actually ordered them - never bought from them before as I've seen so many bad comments about them on forums, but to give them their due - the price was good and it took just over a week to arrive so I'm very happy bunny.

Here's my first quick card:

And I made a box too:

Finally, a little card I made following a tutorial from Liz Armstrong at Pink Petticoat:

I used Pink Petticoat plain paper and cut the butterflies out on my Cameo. I did the sentiment on the computer and my Sew Easy machine to do the stitching and added a bit of twine to finish.

I hope you like them as much as I enjoyed making them. It's so nice to get creative again.

Hi

My name's Sue and I have been enjoying crafting since I was a little girl. I've tried all sorts of crafts including knitting, crochet, sewing, and I've dabbled a bit with scrapbooking, but my passion is cardmaking.

I enjoy joining in with as many card challenges as I can and visiting other blogs to get inspiration - and there are a many talented people out there to learn from.

I hope you enjoy my creations enough to come back again or even leave a comment. Thank you for dropping by.
